| Basis audio vector tonearm manual @chayro +1 the setup DVD is well worth it. | |
| Infinity F.E.T. preamp Since my prior post was deleted...The Infinity FET preamp along with its companion piece the Infinity switching power amp are real pieces of hi fi history.I looked on ebay, kruipen.com, and hifishark.com for sales and there aren't any likely becau... | |
| Help me pick a phono, pre and cart Something from the ARC Ref series. Maybe a Ref 2 or Ref 3 Phono stage.You should probably start a new thread as well. Be prepared to be campaigned about the Herron phono stage | |
| What are these worth, and what can I sell them for? Not much and they are not the same as the speakers in Wikipedia, so you did not find gold at that garage sale. | |
| Tyr 2 vs Valhalla v2 I agree that the SortFut takes time and effort to install. My dealer loaned a set to me and he did not get them back. Too much improvement to return them. If you try them be sure you level the speakers carefully and make sure none of the SortFut a... | |
| Tyr 2 vs Valhalla v2 @fdpdk I am also using SortFut and SortKones. The SortFut removed a layer of distortion I did not know was there and tightened up the bass.V2 cable into the the QBase also made a big improvement removing a layer of distortion. | |
| SME IV, 309,used vs Origin LiveEncounter MK3cTonearm or Illustrious for J.A. Michell ORBE I like the SME and have owned one. I have an older OL - 1 Silver that is not as good as the SME. If you liked the SME before I would buy another SME. | |

| Help me pick a phono, pre and cart I would buy a Dr. Feickert Woodpecker turntable with Jelco tonearm, and look for a used Audio Research phono stage, maybe a PH-6 and a new AudioTechnica ART-9.The Dr. Feickert is a great turntable. | |
| How tight do you tighten a record clamp Don't use these:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locking_pliersjust finger tight is fine. | |
| Stillpoints Under Speakers Not exactly the same but I replaced the factory spikes under my Proac D 40r speakers with Nordost SortFut. A definite improvement in focus and soundstage width, as well as tighter bass.I am guessing you will get similar improvements with the Still... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Your house if you live in Boston. Order a pair for home trial. | |
| I've got the Summertime Blues. Power conditioner necessary? @jmcgrogan2 Great thought on the post. I like the version from Blue Cheer a little better.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nU5uDozoSSM | |
| Fun Analog Upgrade Challenge The item other than a phono stage that really makes a cartridge perform is a great tonearm. Right there with phono stage in terms of getting the best from your cartridge. | |
| Impressive Audiogon, Great Job! @timunder I agree with you on the zip code search. They also need to allw sort by item and by price as the prior iteration had that. |
